What uranium has to do with mosquitoes

ID: 687125

(PresseBox) - A nuclear technology uses the International Atomic Energy Agency together with a partner in Cyprus.

The target is the yellow fever mosquito. The aim is to eradicate this mosquito from Cyprus, because it has taken up residence on the island and transmits serious diseases. The International Atomic Energy Agency and the Food and Agriculture Organization have now collaborated. The result is sterile mosquitoes. Using the Sterile Insect Technique, these mosquitoes are bred and then released, about 100,000 every week. The whole thing is a pilot project, a nuclear solution that would benefit Cyprus and the whole world. The method of breeding male mosquitoes and then sterilizing them by irradiation has been around for decades for other agricultural pests. It is an environmentally friendly method.?

Environmentally friendly is also the most important aspect of uranium, providing green energy and moving away from fossil fuels. As the number of nuclear power plants increases, uranium is a commodity in demand. Recently, the China National Nuclear Corporation even commissioned a research platform to extract uranium from seawater. Now experiments are being conducted there in the South China Sea. Because nuclear energy is being expanded (almost) worldwide, it makes sense to test unconventional uranium resources as well. There are said to be 4.5 billion tons of uranium in the seawater. But currently it is still the mining companies that can get the uranium from their projects. There are IsoEnergy and Consolidated Uranium, for example.

In the Athabasca Basin in Saskatchewan, IsoEnergy - https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/isoenergy-ltd/ - owns three excellent uranium projects. These include the Hurricane deposit discovered in 2018.

Consolidated Uranium - https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/consolidated-uranium-inc/ - has uranium projects in Australia, Argentina, Canada and the USA. Uranium production can be started in the short term.
